This is a study for evaluating the feasibility and safety of MR-guided laser thermal ablation of treatment-resistant brain tumors using the Visualase® Thermal Therapy System (Manufactured by BioTex, Inc., Houston, TX). The Visualase system is FDA cleared for soft tissue ablation in a number of surgical specialties including Neurosurgery (see appendix for documentation). Patients with intracranial brain tumors measuring 3 cm or smaller in largest diameter that have failed any conventional therapy (surgery, stereotactic radiosurgery and/or whole brain radiotherapy) are eligible.
